"Small" embroydery for Shabrack (cheprak), Guards Hussars regiments, Alexander III (1881 - 1894) period of the reign, replica.
Shabrack or Shabraque (Turkish: çaprak) is a saddlecloth, formerly used by European light cavalry.
Cloth, silk, hand embroydery, decorated with Alexander III of Russia monogram. Absolutely best quality.
Napoleonic Wars and foreign campaigns
The shabraque was an accoutrement of the hussar cavalry, based on the Hungarian horsemen in Austrian service who were widely imitated in European armies in the 18th and 19th centuries. The shabraque was a large cloth which in its original form, covered the Hungarian-style saddle, and was itself surmounted by a sheep or goat's skin. The corners of the shabraque were rounded at the front and elongated into long points at the rear. It could be elaborately decorated with a contrasting border and a royal cypher or regimental crest.
